So CI, it stands for continuous integration.

What it means to developers is the following, really simple.

Every time they write code and they want to merge code, they have to do the build and run a battery of tests and make sure that nothing has regressed, and they can ensure that their code change can be merged into the main branch.

And that none of the new changes break the old code.
